Mega Man Megamix
As Mega Man was the one responsible for foiling all of Dr. Wily's attempts at world domination, the Global Robotics Union (GRU), simply stood by, uncertain as to what they should do. Due to their inaction during those dire times, many started to question the value of the GRU, and after Wily's fifth attempt at world domination, the GRU was forced to disband.
A short while later, Mr. X appeared and poured his seemlingly limitless funds and talents into reestablishing the GRU as the World Robot Alliance (WRA, World Robot Union in Japan, WRU). Most of the administrative staff formely of the GRU were placed in high-ranking positions in thw WRA, though they all answered to their new chairman, Mr. X. The overall skill level of the WRA members skyrocketed through Mr. X's teachings, and robots comparable in might to Mega Man started cropping up all over the world. Having grown quite pleased with themselves and their new accomplishments, these scientists were easily persuaded by Mr. X to participate in his new "Ultimate Robot Championship". Scientists all over the world develop new robots to preserve world peace in hopes of avoiding future disasters like those brought about by Dr. Wily. The championship is held one year since the WRA was organized and serves to prove the strength of the participants. During the event, Mr. X reveals his true intentions, leading to the events of The Greatest Enemy in History.
The eight robots were all registered as DWNs (Dr. Wily Numbers) by the WRA, but to avoid confusion, they are listed under the category of "MXN" (Mr. X Numbers) in the manga. All eight MXN robots were created by WRA members.
The World Robot Alliance is also responsible for the Battle & Chase event and the establishment of expiration dates for robots, leading to the events of Mega Man 9.
